It's a linguistic term to describe how someone talks, nothing more.

Then it's a valley accent! This is why it's mild, casual misogyny. No reason to imply it's only women who have accents like this.

I won’t pile on, and I’ll just say I’m not a fan in her current deployment. I love the idea of growing roles for women in the game and in broadcasting. You can’t sacrifice quality of the broadcast to force this though. Give other woman a shot, don’t give her so many slots if she’s this bad. I feel it’s a little forced. Perhaps if we didn’t have so much of her, the backlash wouldn’t be so loud and angry.

Cut her back, try someone else and truly grow while continuing to deliver a quality product.

I was a big fan of the Nude Kesler.

waitaminute...
Wat.


That's the term used to describe his weird speaking style. Often shared by people in "El Ehh".

It's not misogynistic to label it as it is popularly coined lol.

Umm... it doesn’t work like that

Just because you say you are not piling on , then pile on doesn’t somehow mean you didn’t just pile on


Bravo.

Any small annoyance I have ever had with anything Cassie has said is outweighed 100x by the incessant complaining about her I have to sift through to read this forum (and Twitter, for that matter).

Ewww, gag me with a spoon!

If you can find any popular reference (like even remotely close) to ‘valley’ accent as opposed to ‘valley girl’ accent, I’m like all ears.

Tsk tsk. Doubling down on your mild, causal misogyny and dragging Barnet Flames down with you. You'll both get many "tut-tuts"

It's not that deep. It's just annoying.

Yet you keep opening the thread and posting in it. Clearly it's not so hard to sift through after all.

Only because you're quoting me, champ. You've posted more than I have in here.

I'm also not complaining about how unbearable it is. Here's a tip, you don't have to be a martyr, because no one's opinion on it is really that important.

I dunno, buddy, seems like you think your opinion about it (and about this conversation) is pretty important. Fairly certain I'm not the one being sanctimonious here.

The martyr accusation is hilarious. My point is, there is legitimate criticism and there is endless piling-on. Too often, I find threads become bogged down with the latter. That's it.

So much so that you were barely able to click this thread clearly marked with the topic “Cassie Campbell” read all 6 pages and reply.
It’s obviously weighing on you.

I don’t know. He seemed to be as professional about it as possible. Piling on to me would be saying she’s ####.

Really? How insightful, do you feel better about yourself? You seem like a solid human.

For what it’s worth I think I specifically avoided describing the things that irk me about her style, I could have written a whole post on that. That’s what I meant about not piling on. Not piling on, doesn’t mean I’m going to hide my underlying opinion.

Anyways the point I was trying to make was that I think it’s less about her and more about her deployment. I think there would be a less intense reaction from fans if the role wasn’t so forced.
